【解析】
试题分析:四月二十二日是世界地球日,我们每年庆祝一次以提高我们的地球家园的意识,但平常我们有很多方式保护我们赖以生存的家园,如节约用电,节约用水,选择环保的乘车方式等。
【1】F考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:每年的4月22日,标志着地球日的开始,这一天,每年庆祝一次,以提高我们地球家园的意识,以及我们如何可以保护它免受伤害。故选F(我们可以做下面这些事情来庆祝地球日。)与上下文一致。
【2】G 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:关掉灯;空后一句的意思是:关闭所有不用的能源和电。所以这里选G(然而,这不是你仅仅做一天或者几个小时的事情。)与上下文一致。
【3】E 考查对上下文语境的理解。空后的意思是:车是空气污染的最大的原因。所以这里选E(把车放在家里。)概括下文。
【4】D 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:周末可以把车放在家里;空后的意思是:其他更环保的方式是骑自行车,或者更健康的步行。所以这里选D(乘坐公共交通也是一个不错的选择。)与上下文一致。
【5】B 考查对上下文语境的理解。空前的意思是:每天都洗澡不是健康的事,而是舒服的事。所以这里选B(每天洗澡会洗掉我们身体和头发所需的自然油脂。)与上下文一致。
